So thats twice as much time as you get for killing your wife/sister/daughter in a "honor killing".
question though...."Some of al-Zeidi's relatives collapsed after the ruling was issued and had to be helped out of the courthouse. "
really? they collapsed? what is it about the middle east that people are always "collapsing" when they get bad news? You see it on TV all the time and in newspaper reports.. is it a cultural thing? Are they jsut grandstanding? Or is there something messed up in their genetic sequence like with the goats that faint when you scare them?
